The last government-ordered lockdown in the United States ended in 2021, but the effects of the pandemic can still be seen in many struggling small and medium-sized businesses. These businesses can still apply for pandemic relief funds through the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) program, using this updated fast rebate service from LP Consulting.

More information about claiming ERC in 2023, and the application service, can be found at https://get26k.com

Though the ERC program provides tax credits that are not a loan, never require repayment, and have no restrictions on how they can be spent, the program has largely been forgotten by business owners in favor of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). Using the updated application from LP Consulting, employers can claim ERC rebates even if they have already received funds through the PPP.

While businesses could originally only claim relief through either the ERC or the PPP, but not both, recent amendments have expanded the program. Now, almost any employer with between 5 and 500 W-2 employees is eligible, regardless of PPP loans.

Rebates are available for any small or medium-sized business affected by the pandemic, including startups, non-profit organizations, and new businesses founded during the pandemic. Employers can claim up to $26,000 per employee, with no upper limit on funding.

The updated fast rebate service includes a no-cost, no-obligation eligibility checking tool, that takes about one minute to complete. Without requiring any proprietary business information, the eligibility assessment can determine if a business qualifies for rebates, and approximately how much they may be eligible for.

Employers can use the fast rebate service, known as the 15 Minute Refund program, to have their applications completed by a team of ERC specialist CPAs. The program is only available from a single CPA firm, which is focused only on completing ERC applications and maximizing rebates for small businesses.

The 15 Minute Refund program guarantees every client the maximum allowable rebate for their business, with no risk or up-front fees. No business will be charged until after they have received their rebate from the IRS, and any business that does not receive a rebate will not be charged at all.

By providing its updated foreign exchange services with competitive rates and low transaction fees, CanAm Currency Exchange offers a bank alternative for USD to CAD currency conversion to help Canadian students better manage their budgets.

More information is available at https://canamcurrencyexchange.com

With the latest update, the Canadian firm provides students with access to convenient and fast currency conversions that can be done over the phone.

With an estimated 30,000 Canadian students moving to America to study at colleges and universities every year, there is a constant need for individuals to convert Canadian dollars to US dollars. However, due to large fees and low rates, many students can find this conversion detrimentally impacting their finances. CanAm Currency Exchange is helping students moving to Detroit retain more of their money with its low rates.

Once an account has been set up, students can call the company to receive a no-obligation quote for their conversions. They can then have the quoted rate locked in prior to their transaction being processed within one working day.

All of CanAm Currency Exchange’s transactions include written confirmation in the form of an email containing details such as their agreed rates. This transparency makes it easier for students to have a clear picture of their finances and the costs associated with their conversion.

To ensure it is providing the most competitive rates, the Canadian firm checks what other banks are offering each morning and adjusts its own rates accordingly. Additionally, if a customer finds a better rate at another Canadian financial institution or foreign exchange, it will match or beat it.

Based in Toronto, the exchange company has offices throughout Canada, including Windsor, Brantford, Sarnia, and Sault. The Canadian firm is regulated by FINTRAC to ensure it provides a secure service for its customers.

Alongside being suitable for international students, CanAm Currency Exchange’s services are also ideal for US and Canadian cross-border workers looking to convert their dollars.

A spokesperson for CanAm Currency Exchange said, “Your satisfaction is our guarantee. We promise to deliver on time, every time, with the friendliest and most professional service in the business.”

The platform’s latest launch provides users with an upgraded suite of customer relationship management tools, helping business owners optimize their commercial operations with state-of-the-art analytics. The Bigly app offers an intuitive and responsive tool to improve communications, increase productivity, and accelerate revenue growth.

More details can be found at https://biglysales.com

The announcement details Bigly’s unique pay-as-you-go model which provides smaller businesses with a viable and affordable alternative to expensive platforms such as HubSpot and Salesforce. With powerful, automated data loading, the app saves users valuable time on administrative tasks, allowing owners to concentrate on the bigger picture of their business plan.

The digitization of business practices over recent decades has seen CRM become a crucial part of any successful operation. Selling high-quality products and services is no longer enough to stay relevant in the intensely-competitive e-commerce space. Fostering deeper relationships and loyalty with customers has a significant impact on a business’s bottom line.

Bigly requires no technical expertise in terms of setup or operation and was designed for sales agents and business owners rather than engineers or tech-savvy employees. The platform’s pricing model means that users do not pay any annual fees, maintenance costs, or implementation charges, and are only liable for communication tariffs. Prices start at just $0.005 per email, $0.01 per text, and $0.3 per minute for voice calls.

Another useful Bigly feature is its automated call transcription service which enables businesses to keep track of communications and improve customer service performance. The home screen gathers all the essential data from emails, messages, and calls into one central location so that users can see a tally of open orders, complaints, deliveries, and sales calls at a glance.

Bigly’s unified inbox gathers all communications together to speed up and optimize the efficiency of day-to-day communications. An email blast feature allows users to send thousands of emails to customer lists in a matter of seconds while the app’s SMS facility offers more flexibility and unlimited tagging.

A spokesperson says, “Our vision is to provide all the best sales tools in one platform, allowing you to communicate with your clients anywhere in the world. You will always have free access to our customer relationship software.”

[Los Angeles, CA] – Marc Brooks, founder of Cascade Relief Team, is proud to announce that it has successfully scaled its business through the use of social selling.

Social selling is the practice of leveraging social media networks to connect with potential customers and build relationships that lead to sales. Brooks has implemented a comprehensive social selling strategy derived from Molly Mahoney’s signature G.L.A.M. (Go Live And Monetize) program that has allowed Cascade Relief to reach a larger audience and generate more donations and support for its cause.

“We are thrilled to have seen such positive results from our social selling efforts,” said Brooks. “By utilizing social media platforms, the team has been able to connect with a wider audience and increase awareness about Cascade Relief Team’s mission. This has led to a significant increase in audience, donations, and support. Words can’t express enough thanks for Molly and her team in teaching the skills needed to story tell in such a powerful way that affects the bottom line.”

G.L.A.M. is a proprietary system that includes a variety of tactics as part of its social selling strategy, including creating engaging content, building relationships with influencers in its industry, and actively engaging with its target audience on social media. These efforts have paid off, resulting in a significant increase in website traffic, social media engagement, and sales for its participants.

When Brooks came into the G.L.A.M. program, he was a financial and wellness coach looking to broaden his reach and increase his clientele. However, in 2020 when the Oregon wildfires broke out, Brooks knew he needed to do something. Using what he learned in Molly’s program, he galvanized a community around helping and providing relief and in turn, started a movement.

“Words can’t even express how honored our team is to have played a pivotal role in the impact that Cascade Relief Team has made,” states G.L.A.M. creator, Molly Mahoney. “This program allows anyone to better tell their story and make authentic connections with their customers, audience, or donors. Marc is an amazing example of how anyone can leverage the power of social media to scale their business or non-profit. We’ve had doctors, speakers, consultants, coaches, authors and others go through our program with similar results. It never fails to astound us – the results speak for themselves.”

The recently released dining sets are intended for rustic home interior designs, both farmhouse- and cabana-style, and may be purchased wholesale or in large quantities. The pieces are fashioned with durable, lightweight pinewood and include dining and theatre console tables, oasis chairs, bar stools, and benches.

More details are available at https://www.rusticsforless.com

With these new collections, the manufacturers at Rustic For Less have opted for furniture styles with a cozy and chic feel, suitable for winter and the holiday season. The farmhouse style of interior design emphasizes utility, simplicity, and rural charm, while the cabana style brings shade, privacy, and comfort. Both styles suit North Carolina’s mild winters.

Rustics For Less recognizes the particular appeal farmhouse and cabana furniture styles have for North Carolina homeowners. Their rustic aesthetic, practical form and function, simple flourishes, and weatherworn look fit the state’s rural demographic.

Customers can now choose from a large selection of cabana-style dining room pieces, including bar stools, buffets and hutches, chairs, dining tables, complete dining sets, and pub tables. The dining sets are a popular new addition featuring tall theatre console tables and console bar stools. The console tables can be placed against a couch back, allowing families to enjoy TV and mealtime together. The tables also offer extended workspace, making them well-suited for offices.

The farmhouse dining room collection features brown-vinyl-cushioned benches and chairs, fashioned out of steamed pinewood and with a white finish. The pinewood may contract or expand, changing the wood and adding character to the piece. Each item is uniquely handmade, so no two pieces are alike. The benches are Traditional Santa Rita, with turned-style legs and a smooth finish, and the chairs are Oasis, with tall, slatted backs and sturdy wooden seats for long-term sitting.

About the cabana-style collection, a satisfied customer has said: “The end table with a cabinet is a high-quality piece and a perfect fit in our house. All the items are sturdy and beautiful. The prices are reasonable for the level of quality, and we highly recommend this store.”

Content Marketing Media today reflected on its release of Hyper Local Ads Marketing Solution, Powered by AI . The main goal was always to create purpose-driven, informative content about a small business’s services, products, or brand… and by defying convention, this AI Powered Content Marketing Solution did so, with immediate impact.

More details can be found at https://contentmarketingmedia.org

Josh Whitfield, Founder at Content Marketing Media, says: “We wanted to try something new with Hyper Local Ads Powered by AI. Anyone familiar with the Content Marketing for the small business market will probably have noticed how everyone else always seemed to publish content across social media platforms without the focus on small businesses. We felt this was a problem because small businesses need to receive brand association and get the same high profile credibility as major brands.”

So as a welcome breath of fresh air, the Hyper Local Ads Powered by AI can immediately improve efficiency and increase ROI for small businesses. Content Marketing Media chose to make this move because the current market is tough for small businesses right now.

Josh Whitfield also said “We want to give our customers a sense of empowerment while the best available AI technology is being used to drive business for them. With Hyper Local Ads Powered by AI, they have a fresh new possibility. We want them to feel excited and engaged when using Hyper Local Ads Powered by AI solution. Trying something new is always a risk, but it’s a risk we believe is worth taking.”

This isn’t the first time Content Marketing Media has defied convention either. Earlier this year they caused a stir when they introduced a competitive and effective Hyper Local Ads solution. This solution creates six types of digital content – from articles to infographics and videos – and promotes them on hundreds of sites, allowing local businesses to massively improve their brand visibility and authority.

The Hyper Local Ads Marketing Solution, Powered by AI is now available at https://contentmarketingmedia.clientcabin.com/

The newly launched TUSK allows users to privately and securely browse the Internet without the fear of content being censored, manipulated, or biased. Users curate their own news feeds so they get information from media outlets they trust.

More details can be found at https://tuskbrowser.com

Confidence in American media outlets has declined significantly over the years. According to a 2021 Gallup poll, only 11% of conservatives trust mainstream media, with a further 78% believing that the American mass media is liberal-biased. Given these numbers, and the unprecedented amount of information available, the new TUSK browser was launched with the goal of providing American patriots with uninhibited access to media outlets they trust.

TUSK is the first and only web browser dedicated to defending and supporting free speech on the Internet. TUSK’s news feed shows articles from popular media organizations which are often censored on other media outlets, browsers, and search engines. While this is the default setting, the news feed can also be customized to display a user’s preferred news sources.

In addition to the expanded access to censored materials, the new TUSK browser also improves productivity. It utilizes the latest in bookmark and tab management, imports settings, saves passwords through its built-in manager, supports most Chrome extensions, and updates automatically.

TUSK’s security features are similar to other common browsers, too. It forces sites to use HTTPS encrypted connections when available, which protect a user’s data over the network, especially public networks such as Wi-Fi. With TUSK, browsing history and cookies can also be removed with the click of a button.

TUSK has plans to integrate its own unique built-in search engine. Though still in the prototype stage, the search engine is being designed specifically for right-leaning users and will provide filtered access to high-ranking, relevant information free of censorship and liberal bias.

TUSK is available for both Android and iOS mobile and desktop devices. No account or registration is required, and no purchase is necessary.
